Methodology
- Tariffs (base fare + per-km price) come from each province's official municipal taximeter schedule, tracked continuously for our fare calculators.
- The index ride is 10 km: base fare + 10 × per-km price. Waiting time, tolls and night surcharges (where they exist) are excluded for comparability.
- Euro conversion uses the ECB reference rate via Frankfurter (€1 = ₺55 on 2026-10-08); the page refreshes daily.
- Airport rows use each airport's shortest primary route and typical private transfer prices published for that route.
